BLOOD TRANSFUSION
Mr*. Arnold Kruse of Round Top
was brought to the LaGrange Hos-
pital, a few days ago to undergo an
operation. It was impossible for the
operation to be performed, because of
the lack of blood. Her husband, Ar-
nold Kruse, Mrs. Paul Zengleman,
Alvin Wolff, Mns. Alvin Wolff, Mrs.
Otto Toll and Miss Dora Schwarts of
Round Top, came to the hospital as
prospective donors to submit to an
examination of their blood in an at-
tempt to aid Mrs. Kruse. After the
blood from all these people were tes-
ted, it was found that the blood of
Arnold Wolff was the only one whose
typed. The transfusion was given to
Mrs. Kruse Monday afternoon and at
present she is doing nicely.
STRUCK BY CAR
Letty Munke, aged 9 years, daugh-
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Edmund Munke
of Bluff, while on her way home from
school Tuesday evening, and while
trying to cross the highway, was
struck by the truck driven by Man-
ager Watkins of the United Gas Pub-
lic Service Company, who was on his
way to LaGrange from Schulenburg.
Piping which Mr. Watkins had on
the side or running board of the car,
struck the child on the head and chest
and knocked her out of the road and
prevented the truck from passing
over her body. The child was brought
to the LaGrange Hospital by her
, teacher, Mias Edna Legler, and a
thorough examination was made.
Aside from severe bodily injuries, the
little one seemed to suffer no other
ill effects and was permitted to re-
turn to her home, and should no in-
1 ternal injuries materialize, Letty will
be back in school in a few days.
